Default 2004 Mustang Roush Stage 2, Worth It??

Im currently in the process of selling my 2002 Mustang GT, and I found an ad for a 2004 Mustang Roush Stage 2 (http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/3152264673.html)

The car looks great but I was wondering if it would be worth selling my car if I was looking for performance gains. I know that Roush uses the same 4.6L SOHC motor from the GT's but what do they do to tinker with it? Is the stage 2 mostly for looks, or does Roush squeeze out some extra ponies?

Please leave your thoughts on whether or not I should make the leap.

Here is what is on my car in case you were wondering, this is my CL ad (http://fresno.craigslist.org/cto/3169436699.html)

Stage 2 is appearance and suspension. It isn't til stage 3 that you get HP increase.

I know that car... and that's a STEAL of a price on it.
Many of the S2 cars got the optional Roush full length cold air intake. That combined with the Roush/Magnaflow catback and the aftermarket shorties will scoop up a few extra ponies for you, but not much.

The major part of the S2 is the full suspension. They drive and respond so much better than the stock GTs did.
